NOX1 loss-of-function genetic variants in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

ABSTRACT: Genetic defects that affect intestinal epithelial barrier function can present with very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD). Using whole-genome sequencing, a novel hemizygous defect in NOX1 encoding NAPDH oxidase 1 was identified in a patient with ulcerative colitis-like VEOIBD. Exome screening of 1,878 pediatric patients identified further seven male inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients with rare NOX1 mutations. Loss-of-function was validated in p.N122H and p.T497A, and to a lesser degree in p.Y470H, p.R287Q, p.I67M, p.Q293R as well as the previously described p.P330S, and the common NOX1 SNP p.D360N (rs34688635) variant. The missense mutation p.N122H abrogated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in cell lines, ex vivo colonic explants, and patient-derived colonic organoid cultures. Within colonic crypts, NOX1 constitutively generates a high level of ROS in the crypt lumen. Analysis of 9,513 controls and 11,140 IBD patients of non-Jewish European ancestry did not reveal an association between p.D360N and IBD. Our data suggest that loss-of-function variants in NOX1 do not cause a Mendelian disorder of high penetrance but are a context-specific modifier. Our results implicate that variants in NOX1 change brush border ROS within colonic crypts at the interface between the epithelium and luminal microbes.

Project description:BackgroundInflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are complex, multifactorial disorders that comprise Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Recent discoveries have brought much attention to the genetic predisposition of patients with IBD. Here we evaluate the interaction between IBD genetic risk factors susceptibility and CD occurrence in an IBD pediatric patient population, performing a clinical exome survey.MethodsFrom February 2018 to April 2019, we collected blood samples from 7 pediatric patients with IBD concerns from several collaborating health centers and/or hospitals. Blood samples were processed by extracting and sequencing DNA for a clinical exome survey. Shophia-DDM-v3-4 platform allowed sequenced reads alignment on hg19 genome as well as genetic variant calling. Both IBD risk and pathogenic genetic variants covered by at least 20 reads were selected for subjacent analysis.ResultsNormality and Bartlett tests of both risk and pathogenic genetic variants suggested random and heterogeneous distribution of these variants in this group of IBD pediatric patients. P value clustering analysis by processing 157 IBD risk factors revealed genetic heterogeneity in IBD population and suggested two pathways influencing IBD development. In particular, (1) genetic variants associated with autoimmune and (2) metabolic diseases and CD risk factors (rs2066844 and rs2241880 single nucleotide polymorphism variants, respectively, of genes NOD2 and ATG16L) were identified in distinct clusters of IBD patients (P < .05). Moreover, the heterogeneous distribution of the following variants rs10065172 (IRGM), rs1805010 (IL4R), rs5030737 (MBL2), and rs33995883 (LRRK2) in this group of IBD patients was consistent with their random distribution in that population.ConclusionOur study revealed specific genetic variants linked to CD susceptibility, autoimmune and/or innate immunodeficiency as well as to metabolic defects, as favoring factors of IBD, suggesting the valuable role of next generation sequencing (NGS) approaches in IBD molecular diagnostic procedures.

Project description:ImportanceUse of thiopurines may be limited by myelosuppression. TPMT pharmacogenetic testing identifies only 25% of at-risk patients of European ancestry. Among patients of East Asian ancestry, NUDT15 variants are associated with thiopurine-induced myelosuppression (TIM).ObjectiveTo identify genetic variants associated with TIM among patients of European ancestry with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Design, setting, and participantsCase-control study of 491 patients affected by TIM and 679 thiopurine-tolerant unaffected patients who were recruited from 89 international sites between March 2012 and November 2015. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and exome-wide association studies (EWAS) were conducted in patients of European ancestry. The replication cohort comprised 73 patients affected by TIM and 840 thiopurine-tolerant unaffected patients.ExposuresGenetic variants associated with TIM.Main outcomes and measuresThiopurine-induced myelosuppression, defined as a decline in absolute white blood cell count to 2.5 × 109/L or less or a decline in absolute neutrophil cell count to 1.0 × 109/L or less leading to a dose reduction or drug withdrawal.ResultsAmong 1077 patients (398 affected and 679 unaffected; median age at IBD diagnosis, 31.0 years [interquartile range, 21.2 to 44.1 years]; 540 [50%] women; 602 [56%] diagnosed as having Crohn disease), 919 (311 affected and 608 unaffected) were included in the GWAS analysis and 961 (328 affected and 633 unaffected) in the EWAS analysis. The GWAS analysis confirmed association of TPMT (chromosome 6, rs11969064) with TIM (30.5% [95/311] affected vs 16.4% [100/608] unaffected patients; odds ratio [OR], 2.3 [95% CI, 1.7 to 3.1], P = 5.2 × 10-9). The EWAS analysis demonstrated an association with an in-frame deletion in NUDT15 (chromosome 13, rs746071566) and TIM (5.8% [19/328] affected vs 0.2% [1/633] unaffected patients; OR, 38.2 [95% CI, 5.1 to 286.1], P = 1.3 × 10-8), which was replicated in a different cohort (2.7% [2/73] affected vs 0.2% [2/840] unaffected patients; OR, 11.8 [95% CI, 1.6 to 85.0], P = .03). Carriage of any of 3 coding NUDT15 variants was associated with an increased risk (OR, 27.3 [95% CI, 9.3 to 116.7], P = 1.1 × 10-7) of TIM, independent of TPMT genotype and thiopurine dose.Conclusions and relevanceAmong patients of European ancestry with IBD, variants in NUDT15 were associated with increased risk of TIM. These findings suggest that NUDT15 genotyping may be considered prior to initiation of thiopurine therapy; however, further study including additional validation in independent cohorts is required.
